Let’s have a chat.
It’s becoming increasingly clear to me that people have built their lives on sinking sand.
There’s nothing solid or firm about our belief systems anymore.
Fluid = good
Yes/No = bad
I have to say “YUCK!”
I have a wonderful river view from my flat but it is clearly defined by its banks. It flows prosperously but it knows where it is headed.
For years, I was afraid of spiders. Apparently men are more arachnophobic than women, maybe because we were off hunting on our own for most of history. It only occurred to me to embrace the presence of spiders when, after I had ridden the flat of them, I was constantly irritated by flies swarming in my face!
Now I see happy Mr. Spider as my friend, not my foe – and I leave him alone to carry out his divine calling.
If you’re feeling purposeless, it’s by design. The powers that be (whoever you you believe them to be), want you dependent, flowery and weak. They don’t want you solid, you’re no use to them if you don’t obey.
People assume they’re right and I think there is a great degree of intellectual lethargy. It’s hard to do proper thinking but think you must to understand your role in the world and then, hop to it, get up, stand up and get the job done – just like Mr. Spider, silky thin strands and eight wonderful legs to ensnare those wretched flies.
Saying No to bullshit doesn’t mean you can’t have symbiosis. We can work together, we just need to get over ourselves – our fear and our indecision.
I realise I’ve been talking about going into every situation fresh with an I-don’t-know-mind but we can small a rat and it’s okay to call it out when we have the eyes to see, the ears to hear and the will to speak the truth.
An Englishman’s home is his castle and I for one will build it on mighty, deep foundations of truth, love and beauty.
